Left Hereford late this evening, so missed class (even the 7pm!) but decided to make an appearance to work out on my own.
This is usually not my thing – one of the reasons I love Crossfit is the class atmosphere, but I felt motivated to go tonight. Having the bench marks to catch up on helps, as I don’t like trying to figure out what I’m going to do when I get there. So I went in with the goal of doing Helen, which is 3 rounds of 400 M run, 21 KB Swings, and 12 pullups.
I did some warmups with the skipping rope and the PVC, then got into it. I chose a light KB (16KG) as I was interested in concentrating on speed and minimizing my rest periods. I think I was pretty successful tonight in that — I got through the KB Swings pretty well. I had trouble with my kipping tonight, so I was coming off the bar every couple of pullups, but I jumped right back up and continued.
I finished in 13:05, which I was happy with. I was tired, but not Fran-dying tired, so positive news there lol. Starting to feel better about things.
Am back in class Friday evening (barring a flight delay from NL), goal for Holland is to do SOMETHING on Wednesday, even if it’s just some burpees and situps or other bodyweight type things.
